Higher Education
Print Built for Campus Life: Public and Private.
A university is a small city with a print problem in every building: libraries, labs, residence halls, admissions, advancement, financial aid, and a campus health center, each with its own rules. DEX Imaging manages it as one program, with a public-university track for state-system procurement and large-scale print quotas, and a private-college track for advancement, admissions, and small-college operations. Both are built to support the regulations a campus actually carries.
The standards your industry runs on.

The compliance stack
Higher ed carries three regulatory anchors at once, because a campus handles student records, financial aid, and health data.
GLBA
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act — Safeguarding of student financial-aid information — Secure handling of financial-aid documents in print and capture
HIPAA
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act — Protected health information at campus health centers — HIPAA-supporting controls on campus-health devices — DEX programs are built to support these requirements.
Public Universities
Large public campuses buy through state-system procurement and public-funding workflows, and they print at scale. DEX supports state-system and cooperative procurement, public-funding documentation, and large-campus print quota management so tens of thousands of students print under controlled, cost-recovered rules.
Private Colleges
Independent and small colleges run on admissions yield and alumni giving.
DEX supports advancement and admissions print, donor stewardship, alumni communication, and the lean operations of a small college where one office wears several hats and needs a partner that does the same.
Campus deployment
DEX maps the campus building by building, standardizes the device fleet, and deploys print management so a student in the library and a student in a residence hall use the same release and quota system. New buildings inherit the standard.
Library and research-lab use cases Library scan-and-copy stations, high-volume course-pack and reserve printing, and research-lab printing each have different demands.
DEX configures the right device and the right access for each, including secure release for sensitive research output.
Print quota and cost recovery DEX implements student print quotas and cost recovery with platforms such as PaperCut and uniFLOW, so students get a fair allocation, the institution recovers cost, and IT gets a single system of record for campus print.
DEX serves public universities and private colleges across its 68+ metros, from small campuses to large multi-building institutions, with local factory-certified DEXperts and the four-hour emergency response of The DEX Declaration.
